Loved the house and its location by the creek. We stayed outside the whole time just listening to the water. So peaceful that we fell asleep on the porch multiple times. And our furbaby loved getting his feet wet.

One of our favorite places to stay!
This was our 3rd stay here and every time we fall in love with it even more. It’s close to a lot of great gem mines, and we even brought back some gem dirt to sift through in the creek later that day! Our dogs love playing in the creek too. As with all the places in this area, the WiFi is spotty. But we love that they have Direct TV so we can watch more than just DVDs. The beautiful kitchen is well stocked for making meals there and they have a great little coffee bar section! This is a great place to relax and unplug. So much room and a porch on all 3 levels! The main one wraps all the way around and I loved the little fenced in area off the main porch for the dogs. I highly recommend the Bhakti Manor!

Just what we needed!!!!
We needed a quick break away from the hustle and bustle of our every day routine. Decided to spend a few days here to relax and catch back up with nature, The stream/river running beside the house was the most calming and restoring sound you can have. The house was in wonderful shape, and had a crazy well stocked kitchen to use. All communication with the host was quick and efficient. We will be coming back for sure, but for much longer next time.

Fabulous in every way!
Each year we pick a cabin to celebrate Thanksgiving to be near our kids. This one exceeded our expectations and the setting was amazing. We brought our dogs and they had a wonderful time as well. The property is perfect for just about everybody. We felt like we were staying at a good friend’s Home. The kitchen was so well stocked, and had absolutely everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The house layout worked very well for us. I just can’t say enough about it. Debra was also so easy to deal with and communicate with and extremely helpful.

Creekside Cabin
We enjoyed our stay at this cabin. The creek running next to the property was relaxing to listen to while sitting on the porches on each of the three levels of the cabin. The cabin was nicely stocked above and beyond with all the items you would need in the kitchen and bathrooms. The property was very peaceful and relaxing. It was on the outskirts of town with just a short drive into downtown Franklin. We had some trouble getting connected to the internet and the host was super quick at responding and getting it fixed for us. The only thing to be aware of are the steps required to get into the cabin. You have steps to get to the 2nd level where the kitchen and dining room are and a spiral staircase to get to the 3rd floor loft area. Even for people without physical limitations it was a lot of steps throughout the day. If steps are hard for you this property is not what you are looking for. Overall a great place, would stay again and would recommend staying there.

Very beautiful and peaceful sitting steps away from a lovely creek! Very comfortable accommodations with every thing you need to have the best mountain get away. 3 levels to give privacy to all guest. Do take note of the spiral stairs that go from ground to loft. Loved that each level has a bedroom and bathroom. Lots of lighting, tv’s, ceiling fans, and outdoor seating to keep everyone happy! Will definitely return for more adventures! Very easy to travel from Franklin to Bryson City with paved roads up to the short gravel drive.

Tranquil Getaway
This was our second stay at Bhakti Manor. We can’t wait to go back again. The entire place from the time you pull through the entry gates is absolutely gorgeous. The cabin is fully equipped with everything you could need. And is also very clean. It’s a pet friendly home which makes its exceptionally great for us. There is plenty of room for everyone with it being three stories. The wrap around porches are wonderful. There’s a beautiful creek that runs through the property. Everything about Bhakti Manor is perfect. The best place we have ever had the pleasure of renting.

Amazing Property
Super comfortable stay for all 6 of us. Lots of seating inside and out! The house was packed with supplies, clean, roomy and the best part for us was the porch, as it looks out to the beautiful stream and trees. Plenty of parking for 3 cars, 3 transport trailers and 3 motorcycles. The driveway was gravel, but fairly packed down and very level. Location was excellent to all of the amazing roads this area has to offer. We will definitely keep this place in mind for our next Great Smoky Mountain trip.

White surprise
Had a very pleasant stay, just a few minutes of easy country driving from Franklin or Sylva. Property owners were very helpful and even allowed us to fish for rainbows in their private pond. A great place to stay anytime of the year, but I imagine the flowing (audible from inside) creek would be amazing in the summer and great for kids. One thing to note, as shown in the pictures there are a lot of stairs inside/outside of the home. If stairs don't intimidate you, then you'll love you quiet and very private stay here....didn't hear a car for 4 days :-)

Fantastic!
We absolutely enjoyed this house so much! Everything was wonderful! And the fenced in yard is such a help with a dog! You can even gate off the porch and let your dog relax out on it while you grill. Place is well kept! Full kitchen amenities! We were able to bake holiday cookies no problem as well as cook all our meals! They had it decorated for the holidays. The tree was such an added bonus. You cannot beat being right by that creek. Honestly, just an amazing house! Note there is a spiral staircase. May not be ideal for elderly people. They are easy to gate off for kids and pets. They even had a gate in the closet!

Great location. Property manager was extremely responsive.
Cabin was nice, but there are steps everywhere making it difficult for seniors and small children. Lot's of lights throughout and its a real challenge trying to locate light switches. Spiral staircase and outside steps can be very challenging, specially when loading and unloading. Overall, the family had a nice time and enjoyed the cabin. Sadly, we will not return due to steps everywhere.
